4The Canadian Statesman, Bowrnanville, October 20, 1976 Section Two H OME, SWrET HOMiE (Wherever if may be) Editor's Note: The following letter was received recently fromn Gary Coombes, a Bow- manville Rota'ry Exchange student wbo is -in Denmark learning ahl about the coun- try and its people. 1September 28, 1976 Hello friends and-or ene- mies of Bowmanville. I hope you have,,ah bad an enjoyable summer this year. I've had a wonderful tbree montbs of summer bere in Denmark, unfortunately their, winter montbs are soon beginning.ý In fact, tbey bave started. Today it was an average September day at 8 degrees C. ,wbicb equals approximateiy 45 de- grees Fahrenheit. I hope this letter will acquaint you witb some as- pects of Denmark as well as inform you of my first tbree montbs bere. I will try to stick to the main events. My first whie in Denmark bas taken me to most parts of the island Sjealland, where I live. I will, give a quick summary of the places I've seen and-or been. Firstly, I was at a language scbool in Ringsted fromn July 12-28. Here, I had two weeks of Danisb lessons (I haven't figured out wbether tbey've belped yet). There with me were 37 other exchange stu- dents (34 fromn U.S.A. and four fromn Canada; North Bay, Lindsay, Guelpb and Bow- manville (that's me). These first weeks were just great because we ail were in tbe samne boat so to speak with our language problem. While I was at this school, all the ACRES (American and Cana- dian Rotary Exchange Stu- dents) toured such places like Fradericksborg Castie, the Queen's Palace, Tivoli, R~os- kilde Cathedral (wbere all Kings and Queens are buried) and last but not least "The Little Mermaid". We also visited a'cburcb in Ringsted wicb is 805 years old. Ahl of these places were an archi- tect's dreamland and very beautiful. ,From Rinigsted ahl of the excbange students were distri- buted to ail parts of Denmark. Fourteen are on the isle of Sjealland, 15 are living ,on the mainland Jutland and the rest 8HARVEY ORONO 983-5206 ESSO HOME HEAT SERVICE are scattered on smaller ïslands too numerous to men- tion. We stay in pretty close contact with each other and most seem to be enjoying their respective families and towns. uinfortunately, one or- two have had troubles witb tbeir host families and bomesick- ness whicb I guess is natural. We are alI planning to get together over tbanksgiving in November (US. students took majority) so I'm looking forward to that. My adventures after Ring- sted took me to a smali fishing town called Bisserup, on tbe south coast of Sjealland, wbere I stayed for two weeks witb my host family at their summer cottage. t was here wbere I first learned, to water-ski. That was an exper- ience to say the least. While bere, I also tried smoked eel for the first tîme. It taste& better than it sounds. Also while in Bisserup, we went on a fishing expedition to see how a multitude of fisb are caugbt. This was very interesting watching them set nets, baul them in, sort them and dlean them, etc. We were ail very tired after though, because the trip was seven bours long from 2:30 in the morning until 9:30. We also visited a animal safari in Lolland. t was quite similar to the Lions safari in Rockton but there were many more animals here. From Bisserup, I went, to my permanent (3 montbs permanent anyway) home in Snekkersten, four kl. south of Helsingor (pop. 36,000), where you can find Kronborg, Ham- lets castie. Helsingor is a very old and beautiful harbour town. There are ferries goîng and coming every twenty minutes from Helsingborg in Sweden. One thing tbat inter- ested me was the "wahking streets for shopping. There are no cars allowed so alyou ladies can concentrate on spending your husbands money witbout having to worry about your husband driving you over before you can spend it. Its something ike a sidewalk sale ahI year round, since many products are displayed in the streets. After just two weeks in Snekkersten, I started scbool. if you lost track of the date it's August 9tb (thats rigbt Au- gust). They start a montb before we do in Canada. I arn in the math uine in first class gymnasium in H-eIsingolr Gymnnasium. First ciass is equivalent to grades 12 and 13. So far the only problem bas been the language barrier. Just a minor detail of course. Tbe scbool system is quite different , bere. You get no choice of subjects at ail. I bad to take the Math, Physics, Cbemistry, Danisb, Frencb, English (yea), History, An- cient Studies, Music and Phys. Ed. The school day starts at 8:00 and ends anywhere be- tween 12:30 and 2:30, wbicb I tbink is nice because you get Adverti*sing=';c I le ts you know 1what's what.I CANADIAN ADVERTISINC.

While I've been in Snekber- sten 've seen Kronborg Cas- tle, Kobenhavon, Sweden, sur- rounding towns and Vedbeak, where 1 visited Dick Budel, bis wife, Karen and tbeir two children Richard and David. . some ol' back homers. We saw each other four times, tbree evenings and a weekend. t was really funny to sit in the same room witb one, tbree tbousandtbs of Bowmanville's population, 4,000 miles away from it. It was also nice to talk good o' Bowmanvillisb and be understood. Unfortunately, they had to move on and are now in Germany and Holland (figure that one out). Many exciting tbings happened ,while we were in Vedbeah. We visif.ed a settlemert in Lejreý depicting the Iron Age life- style. We were also fortunate to meet the Italian National Soccer Team who were in town to play Denmark. We also saw the Queen in her car on ber way to open an annual furniture show. Well I tbink that covers it for now. Tbe time is really flying over here, 1 don't think 1 need a plane to get home! If any of you want to get out of the bouse, wby don't you come over and visit me and if you can't I really like to bear from ya'. Before I close,, I'd like to say a special thanks to Tony Brand, the Bowmanville Ro- tary and my Mom and Dad wbo made this experience al] possible.
